Chiropractors often use different techniques when working with bone
and muscle, alleviating whatever discomforts the patient may be
experiencing. Similar to how a defibrillator attempts to shock the heart
back into the correct rhythmic patterns, the same goes with the nervous
system. The muscles in the system have a certain pattern that promotes
optimal performance and whenever those nerves in the muscles are numbed
or left idle, they must be re-entered into the pattern within a timely
fashion or risk being permanently lost. In order to get the muscles
back in line with the nervous system, the same processes that already
govern it have to be duplicated. One way this can be accomplished is
through what's called muscle stimulation.

Different size portions of pulses are sent to the nerve endings.
These pulses target a number of possible patient ailments which include;
reducing muscle spasms, regaining strength, lessening of pain and
healing promotion. The stimulation process entails the pulses being
entered in. This, in turn, allows the nerves in the muscles to contract
and therefore settle back down into a more normal pattern. People who
are immobile can still benefit from stimulation to a certain extent by
having their muscle nerves toned without having to physically exercise
their muscles themselves. The benefits of having electric stimulation
administered by a licensed professional, like a chiropractor, are that
the sessions are done in a controlled setting where abnormal changes can
easily be troubleshot and corrected.
